Step 1: take a pregnancy test.
Step 2: make an appointment with a Planned Parenthood clinic to check your results.
Step 3: get the proper prenatal counseling and find all the options (abortion, adoption, etc)
Step 4: talk to a counselor at PP to get the information you need if you decide to carry through with the abortion.
Step 5: if you are NOT pregnant, get put on reliable birth control IMMEDIATELY so this does NOT happen again.
Step 6: REMEMBER THIS INCIDENT - whether or not you end up pregnant. ABORTION SHOULD NEVER BE USED AS BIRTH CONTROL!!!!
While I am a strong advocate for a woman's right to choose an abortion, I am also STRONGLY against killing an unborn child because the woman was stupid, careless, irresponsible, or otherwise just doesn't give a sh!t.
So far, it sounds like you are 3 out of 4 (you can take your pick from the choices above).

Obviously, as you can tell by the other responses, this is a difficult issue. You need to as others have said, get a pregnancy test and see a doctor. You need to find the Planned Parenthood nearest you. They can counsel you on what your various options are. Be careful about the clinic you choose as there are fake clinics out there run by extremists (the religious right) who will convince you to keep the baby and not give you all the information you need to make an informed decision. I personally would not abort a child and would take the adoption option. However, no one here on this Yahoo answers thing knows your entire situation. That is why you need to seek help from a Planned Parenthood clinic. They can give you all the information you need to make an informed decision. And, I know a lot of people on this list have been telling you off for this, but don't let that pressure you. You need to do what is right for you and your baby, if you are pregnant. A Planned Parenthood clinic also can help you with birth control choices after you decide what to do about this pregnancy (if there is one). Good luck and best wishes.

You'd have to wait until your next period to see if you are. Pregnancy tests and all that. Have you considered keeping the baby if you are?
Considering it was your lack of responsibility that got you pregnant. Perhaps you could be an adult and take responsibility for your actions now. Killing it is not the only option. If you can't support it at this point in your life there IS adoption. There's normally a waiting list for people who want to adopt babies. You could provide someone with the desire of their heart, and do the right thing.
If you're worried about your parents finding out, I would tell them anyways. There are a lot of health issues involved in pregnancy and abortion is not always 100% safe (like any medical procedure).
If you're not pregnant I would immediately go and get birth control. That way you'll never be unprepared again.
Good luck. and I'm pulling for you to not be pregnant.

First things first.
How old are you?
Have you talked with your doctor?
Have you taken a home pregnancy test?
Next - if you are pregnant and really serious about getting an abortion, the sooner the better.
I'm not an advocate of this type of birth control, and I really feel like screaming at you (and all chicks who do this) as to WHY didn't one of you use protection?
Especially in this day of rampant sexually transmitted disease.
What where you thinking?
So, go see your ob/gyn doctor NOW.
Get some solid facts and educate yourself on ALL options.
And next time - use a condom, get on the pill or have your tubes tied.
Don't be bringing in an unwanted baby or have an abortion just becase you made a mistake.

Well you should know that UNPROTECTED SEX causes babies and getting an abortion is WRONG just because you were too irresponsible to use birth control or not have sex to prevent it. Just give that baby to a family who do not have any children. People like you are a disgrace to the human race. Babies are not trash and can be just thrown away just like that. That is a living being inside your body and you want to kill just because you are selfish and irresponsible in your actions.
You are pathetic!

Get a home pregancy test. I think first response can be performed 5 days before your period is supposed to start. If yes, go to Planned Parenthood and get some counseling.
Start using a condom-every time.

Probably you´re too young.
PLEASE think first if you really want to have an abortion!
You should have condom in your relation, cause if not, do you realize that if you´re pregnant, inside of you there is a LIVING BABY hoping to live?
sad thing if a mom harms her own baby, isn´t it?
Another thing, if you didn´t use condom, do you realize THIS IS THE WAY TO GET AIDS???!!!
Bye.

Take a pregnancy test.
If you are pregnant, go to your doctor and talk about getting an abortion. Then take an HIV test since you had unprotected sex.

Well, go to a doctor and find out.
Btw, I don't think you should abort it. It's not the baby's fault you had sex, so why should the baby pay for your mistakes?
God bless you.
